technically yes, the wording of the law is too ambiguous to generate a court case as it stands and it doesn't apply to all websites. it applies to services. unfortunately, the law doesn't define exactly what a 'service' is.
however, anyone wanting to offer any sort of service would be stupid to shy away from web standards and the basics of accesibilty as it not only opens your information to the partially sighted, blind etc but to any web surfing device.
